Today I'm linking up with Top Ten Tuesday hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl which is all about lists. Since lists are one of my favorite things this is one of my favorite linkups! Today's topic is Books Set in Places on My Bucket List.
1. Prince Edward Island, Canada - Anne of Green Gables by L.M. Montgomery - PEI is on my Bucket list because of the Anne books. It also looks incredibly beautiful!
2. Torquay, England - So many Agatha Christie books as well as being the area where she grew up.
3. Greenway Estate in Devon, England - Christie based the setting of a number of her books here and I would just love to visit here.
4. Amsterdam, Netherlands - Midnight Blue by Simone van der Vlugt - I more want to see the Netherlands in general but of course I would start with Amsterdam.
5. Scotland - Legend in Green Velvet by Elizabeth Peters - Scotland is so stunningly beautiful. I'd love to explore it one day.
6. Japan - We'll Prescribe You a Cat by Syou Ishida - The diversity of experiences in Japan is really interesting - from stunning nature to Disneyland Tokyo and everything in between.
7. Ashland, Oregon - Sticks and Scones by Ellie Alexander - There's actually a cozy mystery festival in this small Oregon town. I'd love to visit the Shakespeare Festival as well as see all the places that feature in this cozy mystery series.
8. Newport, Rhode Island - Murder at the Breakers by Alyssa Maxwell - I'd love to tour all the Gilded Age cottages in Newport (and revisit the Biltmore which is decidedly not in Newport but maybe I could take a detour on the way).
9. Seoul, South Korea - Soyangri Book Kitchen by Kim Jee Hye - South Korea is just fascinating. It's definitely a place I would love to visit.
10. Ireland - Tara Road by Maeve Binchy - There are so many places I want to visit in Ireland I think I could easily stay there a month.
11. Iceland - Snowblind by Ragnar Jonasson - Granted the book itself is a bit grim but Iceland is high on my list.
This could easily be a Top 100 list. There are so many places I want to visit both in the US and outside it!
Those are all places I would like to visit too! I have been to Amsterdam twice and to Iceland, as well as Newport Rhode Island. I'd go those places again.
